Typically, an assignment will last four to 13 weeks. You may be offered the opportunity to extend the assignment should circumstance warrant. Many of our nurses have stayed on assignment at a particular hospital for over a year, but this is never an expectation and is at the discretion of the employee. At AHS, we understand our nurses’ need for flexible scheduling and respect their right to extend or not extend, depending on their personal needs and lifestyle. There is never any pressure from our side

We have assignments available all across the United States. For up-to-date information on our current job postings, visit our Job Search page. You can also sign up to receive announcements of the latest jobs by email (coming soon), or call us at 800-295-4129.

Again, that’s up to you. If you enjoy the excitement of flying to new locations on little notice, we can accommodate that. If you prefer to have a more leisurely preparation period, we can accommodate that, too. AHS has hundreds of job openings at any given time. This allows us to accommodate the unique needs and preferences of almost any nurse.

AHS travel nurse assignments have guaranteed hours. The number of hours depends on your specific assignment, and you may work 32 to 60 hours per week depending on the facility. Any hours you work over 40 per week are eligible for overtime pay. In California, any hours worked over 8 per day are overtime. When we say hours are guaranteed, we mean it. If your facility does not schedule the required hours or cancels your shift, AHS Staffing will pay you for the guaranteed hours, providing you were available to work.

While it can vary from assignment to assignment, AHS travel nurses typically earn far more than staff nurses, and our pay rates are among the highest in the travel nurse industry. AHS Travel nurses typically make up to $20,800 by the end of their 13-week assignments. All of our employees receive their paychecks weekly.

Beyond the benefits of working when and where you want, we offer our nurses a highly attractive benefits package. Like our stunning pay scale, it’s one of the best in the industry and includes Medical and Dental, a 401(K) savings plan, free educational opportunities, licensing reimbursement and more.

Absolutely – and the number of referral bonuses you can earn is unlimited. For every nurse you refer who is not in our current database and who completes an AHS assignment, we will pay you a referral bonus of between $500 and $1,500 depending on the specialty.

No. AHS Staffing always pays for travel and housing. Plus, we arrange all the details for you, so all you have to do is pack your personal belongings and hop on the transportation we provide. The only thing you pay for out of pocket is the cost of ground transportation to and from your lodgings, which is reimbursed in your paychecks as an additional sum above your salary.

We understand that being away from home can be tough. That’s why we work hard to provide safe, private and convenient housing options located as closely as possible to your assignment. Regardless of where your assignments take you, we’ll work diligently to find you housing that’s secure, clean, well-appointed and equipped with the amenities you need to be comfortable. If you have specific housing requirements, let us know, and we’ll do our best to accommodate them.

Absolutely. We do our best to accommodate any specific requests as we have travel nursing positions available in many different specialty areas. You may even be given the opportunity to work in different hospital departments than the one you were first assigned, allowing you to gain even more valuable professional experience.

As an AHS Staffing nurse, you are an AHS Staffing employee. This means we withhold and pay all of your employment taxes, health insurance, and Workers’ Compensation. Additionally, you are eligible for our extensive employee benefits.

If AHS Staffing is arranging your lodging arrangements, bringing a pet may be an option. Note, however, that you would be responsible for any costs associated with traveling with your pet. If you are paying privately for your accommodations and being reimbursed by AHS Staffing, your landlord would have the final say. Talk to your recruiter for details.
